Happy Friday Everyone!
I'm kinda glad it's Friday... it's been a long week!
With that said, I have a couple things to share and then you'll want to scroll down to the bottom of the post to see a SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT!!!
First up - our friends at Xyron are celebrating 35,000 Friends on Facebook with a week of Giveaways!!! Jillibean Soup sponsored the Giveaway on Thursday. I'm pretty sure there's another Giveaway today - so head on over there! Also, with our $200 Giveaway on Thursday, we offered a $100 Giveaway on our Facebook Page - our winner will be picked today so you can still hurry over there and leave a comment!
Next, we need to announce a Winner of the Fat Pack offered last Friday! Congrats...
Sandy Liles!!!!
Oh, Please pick me! I would love to win a fat pack!!!! Especially since
Jillibean products aren't locally available to me. I have to order online and I
don't get to do that often.

I think it would be exciting, too! I'd love to be on your design team, but commitments right now won't allow it. Maybe one day I'll apply-I think the opportunity would be phenomenal!!
And, congrats to the winners. Yay!!

Exciting news - congrats to the winners, and good luck to all trying out for the DT.
One question: was there ever a winner picked for the June Jillibean sketch? I actually scrapbooked a page ;) so I'm curious.
Have a great weekend!

Posted by: Sandy Liles | August 10, 2012 at 04:34 PM
Hi! Could you please clarify the "2 layouts, 2 cards and/or 1 project"? The way that's written leaves room for multiple interpretation. Does this mean to read "2 layouts plus either 2 cards or 1 project"? or "either 2 layouts and 2 cards or 1 project"? or something else? I can't tell if I should be sending 2 creations, or 4, or 5. Thanks so much for clarifying :)
